Is Iran about to come under further attack?

A false narrative was to be used to stoke up internal divisions leading to violence, armed insurrection, and a coup in Iran.

  • Is Iran about to come under further attack?

Recently, we have witnessed Western-inspired violence on the streets of Iran. The excuse put forward by the rioters was the death of a young woman in police custody. While those promoting the riots claim she was beaten while detained, the official cause of death is related to complications arising from previous brain surgery she had as a child.

The riots were then used as cover much like the Maidan Square upheavals in Ukraine in 2014 to attack the legitimate government in Ukraine, which eventually led to regime change of the democratically-elected government by a coup of anti-Russian fascist forces, financed, armed, and directed by the American administration.

This was the plan they had for Iran. A false narrative was to be used to stoke up internal divisions leading to violence, armed insurrection, and a coup. Over sixty police officers and security volunteers were murdered during these staged riots.

Many radio and television stations not based in Iran but in London, Paris, and other Western citadels, financed by the UK, Saudi Arabia, America, and others broadcast directly into Iran, with many encouraging the rioters to make firebombs and attack government offices, infrastructure, and the police. These media enterprises are part of the daily propaganda that saturates Iranian TV and radio airspace.

Victoria Nuland bragged how they - the Democratic party with Obama as President and Biden as Vice President - spent 5 billion dollars of American taxpayers' monies funding the coup and, by extension, the violence which led us to the debacle of war in Ukraine today, two separate republics now members of the Russian Federation and the Crimea now all in conflict with the West's puppets regime in Kiev under one-time actor (still acting if you ask me) as President of Ukraine and commander in chief of the fascist-led Ukraine army, Zelensky.

America has a well-worn regime change playbook which it has used successfully but not in perpetuity in many of the countries it has tried to pacify and control. Ultimately, the subjugated nation regains its freedom.

As always the raison d'être is money resource extraction and unlimited access for American corporations into foreign markets, and in many cases, monopolies in the targeted regions, whether it is fruit and coffee in Latin American, oil and gas in Iraq and Afghanistan, wheat in Syria, gold mining in Peru… the list is endless.

Fortunately, for the citizens of Iran who stand united against the proposed balkanization and sectarian division of their country, the intelligence and security services of Iran have withstood the criminal onslaught brought against them, losing many brave young men and civilians to the murderous machinations and intrigues of western imperialism and Israeli colonialism.

It appears that the embers are being stoked again as the enemies of the Iranian people gather again to plot murder, mayhem, and mischief against the Republic of Iran.

Just recently, Iran blamed Iraq-based Kurdish groups for the attacks on Isfahan.

Is this another proxy war by the apartheid regime in "Israel" using the Kurds as the battering ram and also as the scapegoat?

Not content with murdering Iranians, physicists now appear to be targeting Iran’s technological experts in the fields of drone technology and missile development.

"Israel’s" undeclared wars of aggression against both Syria and Iran continue unabated.

With Blinken’s visits to "Tel Aviv" a day after the Isfahan attack and a day before "Israel" may have attacked a food and medicine convoy bound for Syria on the Iraqi-Syrian border, we may be witnessing an upsurge of Israeli aggression against Iran with the complete connivance and agreement of the Biden administration.

If Iran is supplying drones to Russia, which it is perfectly entitled to do, it is in America’s interests to encourage Israeli interference in Iranian internal affairs and to attack Iranian convoys and Iranian factories.

I fear very much this is the beginning of the next phase by "Israel", Britain, America, and France, to name but a few, to use the Iraqi Kurds who border Iran as their foot soldiers on the ground and their drone missiles guides in the air.

Like the monsters in Kiev who murdered 14000 people in Eastern Russian-speaking Ukraine from the coup in 2014 until the Russian special military operation in February 2022, and ISIS who murdered and maimed so many in Syria, in another western financed and armed proxy army, I do fear the Israeli flag waving Kurds in Iraq may be used to strike again and again at Iran.

I urge Iranians to remain steadfast in the face of this aggression as Blinken, Biden, Netanyahu, and others are planning their next gambit to further isolate Iran, Russia, and China from the wider global collective West and from each other.

I pray they fail and the Axis of Resistance prevails.

Only time will tell.
